Double Crops Of Peaches From Same Tree
John M. Wilson of 2816 35th St reports a freestone peach tree that yields two crops in a season when frost does not kill blooms. The larger peaches form first and near them smaller fruit matures a month to six weeks later, creating a second crop. Wilson notes the tree, likely Elberta, bears unusually small pits in the small fruit and he also grows vegetables, with space constraints the main gardening challenge.
